Solomon's mausoleum
Solomon I, a mysterious emperor from a distant history.
During the Fourth Epoch Age, he collaborated with the True Creator to establish an empire that unified the Northern Continent. He himself was Sequence 0 True God, a powerful Black Emperor, whose established Order profoundly influenced all aspects of the Northern Continent.
"All living beings submit to His Majesty the Emperor, and even the God, in order to resist hostile forces, must acknowledge the Emperor's rule."
--This is what Mobet Zoroast from the Solomon Empire in the Fourth Epoch once said in Groselle's Travels.
According to Anderson, Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina already has clues about the tomb of this former True God.
The tomb of the former Black Emperor...
Luther seemed thoughtful. It probably wasn't a tomb in the true sense, but rather part of Ritual prepared for promotion, like those of the "Blood Emperor," Roselle, and the shitty George III.
I wonder what might be inside the tomb...
As Luther pondered this, Anderson's hands didn't stop moving. He picked up a special pen and began writing on the Parchment.
"Brush!"
His pen moved across the Parchment, leaving behind shimmering Intis script:
"Where are you now?" A very ordinary opening line.
"Edwina has a piece of paper like that too. It sends a signal to alert her, and when she unfolds it, she'll receive the message," Anderson explained considerately to Luther. "She'll probably reply in about ten seconds."
However, his smile soon vanished.
Because a large patch of bright red blood was slowly seeping into Parchment, as if a wound was pressed against it, spilling copious amounts of blood.
--Lieutenant Vice Admiral Iceberg is in a bad situation.
Somewhere in the Sonia Sea.
A sailboat, several tens of meters long, floated on the sea, its golden sails shimmering with a dreamlike light. This was none other than the Flagship of "Vice Admiral Iceberg" Edwina, the "Golden Dream".
At this moment, the ship, which should have been very beautiful, was in a terrible state of disarray. Smoke had blackened the golden sails, and the once neat and clean deck was dilapidated, stained with blood and sawdust.
The reason for all of this is --
Several warships circled around it, their black steel cannons all aimed at the Golden Dream," exuding a terrifying aura.
"... I surrender." Inside the cabin, Edwina clutched her injured arm and said calmly. She stood amidst a pile of debris, blood streaming down her arm and dripping onto a piece of Parchment.
"A very wise choice."
Opposite her, a man wearing a golden mask nodded slightly, raised his hand, and several soldiers behind him cautiously stepped forward and arrested this Five Seas Great Pirate.
Edwina was thus escorted onto the deck.
"Dog shit..."
Upon seeing this, Danitz, the fourth Sailor of the Golden Dream, glared angrily.
He desperately wanted to stand up and kill all those who had hurt the captain. But a Loen style military boot was firmly planted on his head, rendering him completely immobile.
Not only him, but all the crew members on the entire "Golden Dream" had been subdued, crouching on the deck with their hands behind their heads, and being pointed at by numerous gun barrels.
"How could this happen... It's so sudden..."
Danitz lay sprawled on the deck in a disheveled state, thinking resentfully.
He found it hard to accept, and even felt like he was dreaming.
Just minutes before, they were still excited about solving King Solomon's riddle, gathered on the deck for a celebratory banquet. But without warning, these warships suddenly appeared and launched an attack on them. These warships were not only heavily armed, but also equipped with many powerful extraordinary beings. The people on the Golden Dream " could not resist and were completely crushed in no time.
"Captain!"
"Captain, are you alright?"
"Don't touch our captain!"
Not only Danitz, but also the crew of the "Golden Dream" were enraged upon seeing Edwina being brought aboard. They shouted and struggled, clashing with the soldiers who were controlling them.
"Alright, everyone calm down."
Edwina said calmly, "Impulsiveness is not good for you."
Although the crowd was unwilling, they obeyed her instructions and temporarily ceased their resistance.
She Soothing everyone down, then turned to look at the Gold Mask leader.
"Instead of fighting off the Feysac people, you're arresting us... aren't you afraid of causing trouble?"
There is no doubt that those who arrested them came from the Loen Military.
Behind Edwina is the Church of Knowledge, the unified faith of many small countries like Lenburg. The "Vice Admiral Iceberg's " true meaning in saying this was a warning to the Loen Military not to act recklessly, otherwise it might provoke these countries' resentment towards Loen. Given the current international situation, Loen should be more cautious in its diplomacy.
"Hehe..."
The MI9 chuckled softly from behind the golden mask. "Enough with the nonsense, Ms. Edwina. Hand over the location of King Solomon's tomb, and for the sake of the Church of Knowledge, we won't do anything to you."
It turns out that the reason they attacked Edwina was to find that tomb!
Upon hearing this, Edwina's expression changed, revealing her reluctance.
"We can't give them to them, Captain!"
"Yes, exploring that tomb and uncovering the lost history—hasn't that always been your wish?"
The crew members also cried out, equally unwilling to let their efforts become someone else's spoils.
"Shut them up."
"That's what the man wearing the Gold Mask said."
Thump! Thump!
"Hmm!" Please remember the only official website for this novel: www. deqixs. org. The website owner has only this one website; other websites may be discontinued at any time.
A heavy sound accompanied by a muffled groan rang out as the soldiers behind the crew members struck them hard with the butts of their rifles.
Load.
The Gold Mask spoke again.
"Snap!"
After a series of sharp metallic clangs, the dark muzzles of guns were pressed against everyone's heads.
"Ms. Edwina, we are extremely pressed for time and have no time for idle chatter," said the Gold Mask. "Please consider carefully: is the clue to the tomb more important, or the lives of all the crew members?"
He raised his right hand, and when he lowered it, the soldiers would fire, sending all the pirates to their deaths.
Edwina's round, delicate face turned pale.
"... I see."
Without much hesitation, she said in a deep voice, "I'll tell you the location of the tomb, and you must not harm my crew again."
"That's more like it," the Gold Mask chuckled upon seeing this.
"Dog shit..."
Danitz closed his eyes and cursed again, unwilling to accept defeat.
